But there's still the issue that Usenet isn't very user friendly, and based on my past experiences, highly unpredictable and loaded with spam. Plus, as was mentioned, it's subject to DMCA takedown notices.

BitTorrent however offers a wide range of choices for both torrent sources and torrent clients, reducing the task of launching a torrent download to a single mouse click, one with a zero time launch delay when you use magnet links. The convenience is almost the best it can be at this time. In fact, only Netflix can beat it with its live streaming support, the one thing BitTorrent hasn't entirely mastered yet.

I don't.
Once the common man finds his way to usenet the spotlight will then be on usenet and it will vanish the same way as napster, limwire, megauplaod, pirate bay etc

I don't think so, there is too much money invested in those businesses to shut them down. Besides most of them abide by DMCA takedown notices. If you don't get your latest HBO show within a day or 2, it will be taken down, HBO is notorious for that.

No, I didn't. Honest... I ran out of gas. I... I had a flat tire. I didn't have enough money for cab fare. My tux didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole my car.

Your router runs Linux.
Your TV runs Linux.
Your Smartphone runs Linux.
Your Mediabox runs Linux.
Your PS3 runs Linux.
Your fridge runs Linux (if it's TV-enabled).
Your thermostat runs Linux (some do, wifi enabled etc).
Your car/airplane entertainment runs Linux.
Your RRSP funds tradind agency runs Linux.
And the vast majority of webservers you use daily are Linux powered.
And I'm probably forgetting a boatload...

I don't think Desktop really matters at this point ;)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26917860 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 22:33:44 EDT Re: Get your very own copy of The Pirate Bay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26913404 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26913404 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 18:42:29 EDT Re: Get your very own copy of The Pirate Bay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26913379 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26913379 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 18:30:42 EDT Re: Get your very own copy of The Pirate Bay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26912845 Once the common man finds his way to usenet the spotlight will then be on usenet and it will vanish the same way as napster, limwire, megauplaod, pirate bay etc]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26912845 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 14:49:00 EDT Re: Get your very own copy of The Pirate Bay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26891392 said by elwoodblues:

MEh, usenet for me.

believe it or not i needed some old router documentation for work last night and i couldn't get it on usenet. i had to use bit torrent.

i noticed pirate bay's torrent file links were all broken... but the magnet links were fine. i've never used them before but it was a simple copy/paste into my torrent client (transmission) and by morning everything was downloaded.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26891392 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 09:44:35 EDT Re: Get your very own copy of The Pirate Bay http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Get-your-very-own-copy-of-The-Pirate-Bay-26891362
